Waitaki River Salmon Fishing - North Otago |
![]() |
Steve Thomson from Glenavy caught this 12.59kg (28 lbs) fish to win the 1989 Waitaki River Salmon Fishing Contest. Glenavy is a small village on the north bank of the Waitaki River on State Highway 1. The local hotel is well worth a visit. Hanging on the walls in the bar are many excellent pictures and mounted trophies of some of the biggest salmon ever caught in New Zealand. |
